Lord of the Truth

Chapter 256 [Bonus Chapter] Human Settlement No. 53

*Raaf Raaf Raaf*

The winged beast split the sky whenever it appeared, arousing fear among all the creatures in the blue forest below with every stroke of its wing

And most importantly stirred curiosity in the heart of Robin, who did not take his eyes off him even for a moment... ”What a marvelous creature...”

”Haha, do you like the Draco? I can buy you a Draco egg from the next Giantsʼ city if you want.” Jabba laughed out loud

”you can buy it? I thought you found it by accident and raised it, or your family got it for you on your puberty ceremony or something.. these Dracos can be bought and sold?!” Robin spoke in shock.

This marvelous Winged Beast has the power of a mid-level Saint!!

”Haha no no where your imagination took you... and what puberty ceremony?! nevermind, The Draco eggs can be found in any market in abundance, if you want to raise one you can buy an egg anytime anywhere, The eggs are very affordable for most giants.”

”Really?!... But I wandered through the woods and entered 3 giantsʼ cities, and I had never seen one of those before!” Robin doubted, Jabba has to be joking with this!

You can get an egg for these winged beasts easily? who wouldnʼt have one then, there wouldnʼt have been a single Giant that doesnʼt have a Draco!

”Iʼm not exaggerating, Dracos eggs are available everywhere and some kind of cheap as well, one egg could be sold for one black banknote! ..but people simply donʼt want to raise them” Jabba shrugged.

”Hah...?” Robin furrowed his eyebrow, who wouldnʼt want a fast means of transportation and a powerful loyal companion like this winged beast?

Especially for a race that canʼt fly no matter how strong it is like giants, these Dracos should be their primary focus to raise

”Haha, Alright Alright, I wonʼt let you guess for too much.” Jabba laughed out loud and then continued, ”In nature, a single female Draco lays hundreds of eggs in each mating season, but in the end, only one of them survives, if at all...

This is due to two reasons, the first is that Dracos are by nature highly aggressive, so the first to hatch attacks the rest of the eggs and shatters them.. it does not eat them.. it only kills his siblings and leaves them there.

The second and most important reason is that the Dracosʼ food is extremely limited, they only eat ancient herbs or other powerful creatures that are imbued with spiritual energy, and that is why Draco creatures in nature are very few to the point of extinction, you wouldnʼt find a mature one roaming around unless you are extremely lucky.”

”Hmm.. it seems that the two points are related somewhat, I bet that there are inherited information that is passed down to the newly hatched cubs about the state of their scarce food, so whoever hatches first kills his siblings to have less competition.” Robin scratched his chin

Hearing this, Jabba shrugged, ”Maybe~ Anyway, the big merchants raise their own pair of male and female Dracos and use them to get eggs and sell them, but these eggs are often used to prepare fancy meals, for who has the money needed to feed A Draco?

Dracos donʼt have a certain mature age, if you feed them enough energy filled food they will keep growing, if not they will starve to death after a few years.

They are extremely loyal if raised indoors, and can reach power levels to protect entire families... but you need to make them reach that kind of strength first if you can!

Whether the ancient herbs or the quality of meat they eat are extremely rare and expensive, only the most wealthy giantʼs in the land can afford to raise a Draco for personal use

You canʼt even imagine how much fortune I spent on my little boy here to get this big, those around me keep saying that I waste my money, but what do I do... I love the feeling of flying haha.”

”Huh... interesting...” Robin muttered, then didnʼt add a word.

------------

A little over two hours later

”Hey boss, we have come to your station!” Jabba pointed forward and spoke loudly

Robin sticks his head out from behind Jabbaʼs gigantic back in a comic scene and saw a small town a few kilometers away.

”Impossible... Is this Human Colony Number 53? Are we still inside the territory of the Lightning Tribe?” Robin is surprised

By calculating the Dracoʼs flight speed and the time they were in the air, the distance it traveled is certainly greater than the distance between the two farthest points in the Kingdom of the Black Sun.

During the last two hours of flying, Robin thought Jabba had decided to take a long way and make a detour from nearby lands so they wouldnʼt be caught!

They were going in a straight line all along? How much larger is that Lightning Tribeʼs land than the Black Sun Kingdom!?

”Haha of course that is it!” Jabba confirmed and then looked behind him, ”Boss, if I were you, I would tell that thing to hide starting from now... Walking around with a loose demon next to you wouldnʼt be a good idea.”

”This…” Robin recalled that demons are untamable and detestable creatures in this world, ”Alright, go down some distance before the settlement to leave him there.”

”Just tell that thing to wait for us around the town first.” Jabba said without caring

”... Done, I told him, you can go down now.” Robin looked at the demon for about two seconds, after looking in front of him again and said to Jabba

”Good.” Jabba turned back and grabbed one of the demonʼs horns and threw it from above

”KKAAAAAAAAAAAA!!” .... *boof*

”ARE YOU MAD?! We are hundreds of meters mid-air!!” Robin followed the demon with his eyes until he hit the ground with his horns first, then came back to shout at Jabba

”Hehe, donʼt worry, those demons have naturally tougher bodies than even ours, a fall like this will only give him a few bruises if any… Hey hold on, we are going down!” Jabba said, then patted the neck of the four-winged beast and began to descend towards the settlement gate

*Raaaf Raaaf*

”A Winged Beast!!”

”Beware!!”

”AAHHH, survive with your skins!!”

The scary scene of the Draco landing quickly attracted everyoneʼs attention, some of them threw the food or whatever tools in their hands and began to run away, and some of them fell to the ground from fear

”SHUT UP YOU NOISY WORMS! What are you afraid of, hah? My Draco doesnʼt eat trash!” Jabba jumped on the ground and reassured people in his own way

A way that made Robin furrow his eyebrows before he silently came down behind him...

No matter how intelligent Jabba is and no matter how many times he says he doesnʼt care about the race of the person in front of him, the genes for arrogance and a sense of superiority over the rest of the races were still ingrained in his bones even if he denied it.
